I opened it up in a hurry and poured it in the storage bin. I noticed it looked different but it didn't register. I threw out two cups to my fish and then went and looked at the bag. I somehow ordered Optimal Aquaponic Feed, so should I just keep feeding them this? Or just dump it out in the pond? I compared the contents and they seem to be very close. 3/4 Acre South Georgia Pond, 1,500 BG/RES; LMB coming soon Father, forgive them: for they know not what they do.

Younger fish need a hotter feed. www.hoosierpondpros.com http://www.pondboss.com/subscribe.asp?c=4 3/4 to 1 1/4 ac pond LMB, SMB, PS, BG, RES, CC, YP, Bardello BG, (RBT & Blue Tilapia - seasonal).

One of the guys from optimal told me I should not feed it because of the extra minerals in it. 3/4 Acre South Georgia Pond, 1,500 BG/RES; LMB coming soon Father, forgive them: for they know not what they do.
